“Private Chefs” Jesse Brune Always Remembers The Vegans
Written by Vegetarian Star on May 13th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Reality TV.
Jesse Brune can be seen on the Food Network Channel’s Private Chefs of Beverly Hills, where six chefs attempt to please and cater events for the rich and sometimes famous residents in Beverly Hills.
Many times, the requests involve lavish, unusual or unconventional food, so Brune follows the Boy Scout’s motto and is always prepared.
Being prepared means remembering some guests want meat-free, dairy-free or gluten-free, whether they’re “allergic” or not.
“I always make sure I have a vegan or gluten-free backup dish, because there’s always going to be someone allergic to something,” Brune told the Milwaukee Wisconsin Journal Sentinel. “Usually if people say they’re allergic to something in Beverly Hills, that just means they don’t like it. There’s so much money in Beverly Hills, people have to get creative with their lives. I’m never bored.”
Although Brune attended culinary school and has plenty of experience as a private chef, what’s healthy doesn’t always turn out well, like his attempt to make a cake with organic ingredients.
“I did have one food disaster where I did sort of give up. My best friend’s daughter was turning 2…All she wanted was a Mickey Mouse cake. I attempted to make this cake…First, it was a healthy organic version that looked like crap. Second, there was so much store-bought frosting my stomach turned. I just went and bought a cake.”
Even a pro can mess up a good dessert. Sometimes store-bought frozen vegan cake is really the best option.
